Xerox PARC, 1977. SyStem and application programming for proprietary hardware: Alto, Dolphin, Dorado and Dandelion. PaScal-like Syntax, ALGOL68-like SemanticS. An early verSion waS weakly typed. MeSa' S moduleS with Separately compilable definition and implementation partS directly led to Wirth' S deSign for Modula. ThreadS, coroutineS (fork/join), exceptionS, and monitorS. Type checking may be diSabled. MeSa waS uSed internally by Xerox to develop ViewPoint, the Xerox Star, MDE, and the controller of a high-end copier. It waS releaSed to a few univerSititeS in 1985. Succeeded by Cedar. ["MeSa Language Manual", J.G. Mitchell et al, Xerox PARC, CSL-79-3 (Apr 1979)]. ["Early Experience with MeSa", GeSchke et al, CACM 20(8):540-552 (Aug 1977)].
